FASTRAK Sweeney Cars Northeast Touring to Sanction “Crate” Portion of the Steel City Stampede this Sunday at Lernerville Speedway

**FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE** April 10th, 2013 FASTRAK PR – Wesley Outland & Jim Balentine

(Youngstown,Ohio) – This Sunday, April 14 at Don Martin’s Lernerville Speedway in Sarver, Pennsylvania will be the running of remaining events at the “Steel City Stampede”. The FASTRAK Sweeney Cars Northeast Late Model Touring Division will sanction the “crates” portion and compete for $2,000 to win. The race will be a “non-points” event that was rained out after the conclusion of heat races and the dash on October 26, 2012.

All qualified cars that return will retain their qualified position. In the event of some cars not returning, other qualified cars will be moved up to fill the voids. The remaining feature starting positions will be filled through two B mains. Drivers who were present in October at the original race will start in their respective B main positions.

However in the event the car owner of record chooses to replace the original driver with a different driver, the car will start scratch ahead of any new cars. In all cases, the original entered car owner will receive prize money.

Any new cars in attendance will be permitted to attempt to qualify by starting in the B mains behind those drivers previously entered. New cars in attendance will also draw for starting order in the rear of the B mains.

***Car weight and tire rule will be from the FASTRAK 2013 rule book. There will be NO race membership fee but any new cars MUST pay the $100 FASTRAK registration fee.
The majority of our field have already run a race at the new weight limit and for the most part teams have already cut up their FT400 tires it makes no sense to go back to the old rule for this one race” stated FASTRAK President Stan Lester*****

Show-up points were previously awarded for FASTRAK Northeast Touring competitors back at the conclusion of 2012, no additional points will be awarded and 2012 Point Standings will not be affected. Again this is a NON-POINTS RACE!!

This is a continuation of the 2012 FASTRAK event. The event remains a 30-lap feature paying $2,000-to-win.

B Mains (8 laps if less than 10 cars, now it will be 10 laps if there is 10 or more cars). Top 2 finishers from each B main will transfer to the feature. Additional cars may transfer if additional cars are needed to fill 24-car starting field.

DAVE SCOTT “ICES” THE COMPETITION!! PICKS UP $2,000 IN SWEENEY CHEVROLET FASTRAK LATE MODEL NORTHEAST TOURING SERIES 2013 DEBUT AT MERCER’S “CHILLER THRILLER” SATURDAY NIGHT By Jim Balentine-FASTRAK NE PR (Mercer, PA) April 6, 2013-Veteran Late Model driver Dave Scott from Garland, Pa “iced” the competition driving Billy Henry’s back up car leading flag to flag to garnish the first race of the 2013 Sweeney Chevrolet FASTRAK Late Model Northeast Touring Series over a stout 23 car field at Bill Altman’s Mercer Raceway Park on Saturday April 6 as part of the season opening “Chiller Thriller.” Eventual winner Scott and Colton Flinner led the 24 car field to Donny Gallagher’s green flag with Scott taking the lead right from the start. Flinner challenged Scott out of turn 4 on the first lap getting sideways letting third place starter Wayne Robertson to slip into second. Scott increased his lead in the opening laps. Seventh place starter Dan Angelicchio passed Josh Double for sixth on lap 9. Scott began lapping the field on lap 9 while the caution flew on lap 10 for Jim Cochran that bunched up the field. After going back to green fourth place starter Max Blair was challenged by Mike Pegher Jr for fifth. On lap thirteen Flinner regained second place over Robertson. Will Thomas then moved into sixth from starting twelfth on lap seventeen getting around Pegher. Scott continued to lap the field at the halfway point getting into Mike Anderson in corner four but maintained his lead. Scott opened up his lead to a straightaway at lap 24 with a two car battle behind with Robertson and Angelicchio for the third place position. Angelicchio got around Robertson on lap 28 for third with the caution coming out on for Dustin Waters on lap 32 bunching up the field once again. With the lapped cars going to the rear on cautions this put Flinner right next to Scott on the restart. Angelicchio was able to pass Flinner while Scott pulled away and held off the competition to win the $2,000 feature and to take home a beautiful 6 pound goblet trophy. “This is awesome” said the winning Scott, “starting on the pole can be tough but I can’t say enough about this team. I need to thank Billy (Henry) for letting me drive this car. This is meant to be a part time ride as I’m slowing down this year with my family and go karts but we may need to think about that. The last restart got me worried but after the good jump I got I knew we were ok. Look at the size of that thing (the trophy) that’s Awesome!!!” Scott won his fifth career FASTRAK Northeast Touring show feature with Angelicchio second from seventh, Flinner third, Max Blair fourth and Mike Pegher Jr. fifth from eleventh. Both Pegher and Will Thomas were the hard chargers both moving up seven spots to better their position. The next Sweeney Chevrolet FASTRAK Northeast Touring show will be the rain delayed “Steel City Stampede” at Lernerville Speedway in Sarver, Pa on Sunday April 14th, beginning at 3 PM. It will be a non-point race as the 2012 season for FASTRAK was completed. It will consist of B-mains for the non- qualified cars and the feature event. Any car who did not compete in the heats last year will be permitted to tag the end of the B-mains. FASTRAK series rules will apply. Nine divisions will be in competition that day. The next Sweeney Chevrolet FASTRAK Northeast Touring points race will be again at Bill Altman’s Mercer raceway Park on Saturday April 20th as part of their regular show of 410 Sprints, Small Block Modifieds, 305 Sprints, Stock Cars, Mod Lites, and Mini Stocks with racing to commence at 7 PM.
